An Astaire-Rogers musical featuring the ever-popular Irving Berlin numbers, 'Top Hat', 'White Tie and Tails', 'Cheek to Cheek', 'Isn't this a lovely day?' and 'Piccolino'.
Starring Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers
with Edward Everett Horton, Helen Broderick, Eric Blore

The greatest of all musical-comedy teams in the cinema, Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers made many films which are evergreen in the memory of an older generation, and no less popular with the younger. Top Hat is, by general agreement, the best. It is a backstage story, and the setting is London, with a trip to Venice.
